Isn’t there already artstation.com? Just had a look at Cara and it looks very similar

This has been my experience as well. If you already know what you are doing, LLMs can be a great tool. If you are inexperienced, you cannot assess the quality nor the accuracy of the answers, and are using the LLM to replace your own learning.

I like to draw the parallel to people that have learnt to paint only using digital tools. They often show a particular colouring that shows a lack of understanding of colour theory. Because pipette tools mean that you never have to mix colours, you never have to learn to do so. Painting with physical paint isn’t superior, but it presents a hurdle (mixing paint) that is crucial to learn to overcome. Many digital-only artists will still have learnt on traditional media. Once you have the knowledge, the pipette and colour pickers are just a tool, no longer inhibiting anything.

Ah at least you benefit from the veneer of being in the natural sciences. Don’t mention you’re a social scientist, then people straight up believe there is no science and social scientists just exchange anecdotes about social behaviour. The STEM fetishisation is ubiquitous.

I don’t think this is a bad thing per sé. I don’t think that everything on the internet should be saved.

I found the issue in the west is that research only gets funding if it can get results quickly and be turned into money. This is a massive problem because while r&d is completely valid for private companies to do, it strips public universities from much needed funding in the arts, humanities, the non-quantitative social sciences and STEM areas that are not of immediate economic benefit. My experience in Europe.
